They use their giant mouths.
Whales don't need to breathe through their mouths. Instead, they breathe through their blowholes on top of their heads, like the dolphins and porpoises.

Crocodiles are often seen on the beach, looking like they are asleep, with their mouths open. What they are doing is basking, they keep their mouths open to regulate their body temperature. People sweat, dogs and cats pant, and crocodiles open their mouths :)
yes they do, by opening their mouths.
Whales with big mouths include the baleen whales, such as the blue whale, humpback whale, and gray whale. These whales possess large mouths equipped with baleen plates that allow them to filter-feed on small organisms like krill and plankton. Another notable example is the sperm whale, which has a large mouth and is known for its deep-diving abilities to hunt for squid.
Gray whales are baleen whales. The Sperm whale is the only really big toothed whale.
